Ask HN: How to get started with robotics as a hobbyist?
1•StefanBatory•1h ago
I wanted to find new hobbies for myself, something that involves more physical stuff compared to only code. How did you started on your journey with robotics, what's handy to learn in the first place? I know only basics about embedded programming and I'd need to brush up of my physics skills. I don't have a set goal in my mind, only exploring for the time being.

Trying to build a robot is the way to start the robotics hobby. Reading about robots, studying physics etc. are different hobbies and fine in their own right, but not a robotics hobby.
There is no wrong way to do a hobby. Good luck.

Look for three papers on "integrated mental architecture" and personality, psychopathology then drill down to experimental robotics and begin from a standard text and devkit.
